I'm Hoarding for the Apocalypse

202 Everything in the City Is Very Unfamiliar

However, it was a disaster outside due to the bugs as no one had cleaned them up. When the car was driving on the road, the sound of wheels rolling over the bugs and them exploding could be heard. Just by listening to the sounds, Du Yue subconsciously imagined the scene in her mind. Fortunately, she was able to take it better now, or else she would have grown numb all over again.

As the car drove along the road, Du Yue asked He Xing with a map in her hand, “Where are we going first?”

He Xing glanced at the map and pointed at a circle. “Let’s go to this one first.” On the map, this location was the closest to them. The two of them had studied it carefully yesterday. These locations might not be 100% fake. Perhaps someone had really circled the correct location. Regardless of whether it was true or not, they had to personally go and take a look to be at ease.

Qing He City was tens of kilometers away from the base. He Xing drove faster here than he did in the base, but that did not mean much. It was foggy outside, so He Xing did not dare to even drive at a normal speed. Hence, it took them an entire day to cover the distance of a few dozen kilometers.

!!

At noon, the two of them parked the car by the road and had lunch in the car. They set off after their meal, and Du Yue was the one driving. It was already five o’clock in the afternoon when they finally drove into the city. It was not very late, but the fog had already limited their vision. Now that the sky had turned dark, they could not see anything.

Du Yue stepped on the brakes. “I’ll get down first. There’s something blocking the road ahead. I’ll go clean it up.” Due to the earthquake a few days ago, all the high-rise buildings collapsed. The road was also full of potholes, and all kinds of bricks and tiles were piled up. The last time they came to the city, they were also blocked by these things.

At that time, it was not convenient for Du Yue to make a move because the people from the base were there. Now, there were only the two of them, so they naturally had no scruples. He Xing quickly said, “Wait a minute, I’ll go too.”

Du Yue did not reject his offer. They were unfamiliar with everything in the city and did not know if there were any enemies lying in ambush in the dark. If the two of them worked together, they could avoid a lot of danger.

If Du Yue wanted to put things into her space, she could put them all into her space as long as they were connected to her. Therefore, Du Yue squatted down in front of the bricks and tiles and reached out to touch one of them. In an instant, they could no longer see the things on the ground.

Of course, Du Yue would not let these useless things occupy the precious space in her space for too long. After the road was cleared, Du Yue threw the bricks and tiles on both sides of the road. As for the bugs that were on the stones and cement, they all died the moment they entered the space and were thrown out together.

The two of them returned to the car. He Xing told Du Yue to move to the passenger seat so that he could take over the driving duty. The car moved slowly in the dark. It took about 40 minutes before they finally found the location closest to them on the map. The two of them stood in the night, shining their flashlights on the collapsed building. This place used to be an office building, but it had now become a useless ruin. Even with Du Yue’s flashlight, the two of them could only see a small area in front of them.

Now that night had fallen, trying to find an entrance to the underground city in these ruins was like looking for a needle in a haystack. Before Du Yue could say anything, she suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure flashing by from the corner of her eye. The shadow was extremely fast, so fast that even though Du Yue noticed it from the corner of her eye, she could not tell if she was seeing things.

However, when Du Yue turned to look at He Xing and saw him nodding silently at her, she knew that she was not mistaken. “Let’s catch up and take a look?” Du Yue asked softly.

“Yes.” He Xing had the same thought at first, so the two of them immediately chased after the black shadow.

In the ruins, movement was limited. In addition, they were practically moving in the dark, so their speed naturally could not be fast. However, neither of them was the type to give up easily. Even though they were stumbling, neither of them had the thought of giving up. The person in front did not expect them to catch up to him. He had already started to slow down, but when he realized that they were chasing him, he began to speed up again.
